  • SEO WooCommerce let’s get that traffic, a use case

    WordCamp Switzerland 2023Speaker: Isaline Muelhauser

    September 20, 2023 — Every website needs traffic, right?

    A website without conversions is a bad investment for a company – and most probably means an unhappy client for you.

    What do you need to do on the tech side and what do you need to tell your client to do on the content side for a performant website in the SERPs (Search Engine Results, i.e. to get that organic traffic)?

    This talk shares a use case in the B2B industry, bilingual (FR-DE), WooCommerce with a tight budget. Ruthless prioritisation was necessary.

    You will hear the point of view of the SEO specialist, Isaline Muelhauser, whose talks are famous for their no-nonsense approach.

  • WordPress as Framework for REST-APIs, the secret Weapon

    WordCamp Switzerland 2023Speaker: Theo Dege

    September 20, 2023 — WordPress has had an interface for a REST API since version 4.7 (2016, 7
    years) and it is still highly underrated. Why is it there and why is it so
    important? What can you do with it?

    First question, why does this interface exist?
    The interface was intended from the beginning to display WordPress on
    other sites, for example larger projects and Jamstack sites.- Mullenweg
    certainly wanted to create a way to push the concept of Open Data.- They
    probably already had the Gutenberg Block Editor in mind (WordPress 5
    (2018, 5 years)).

    Second question why is it so important?
    – Surely because of points 1 and 2 , as just mentioned to drive the Development
    for WordPress in general. And because it gets so absolutely out of its PHP
    MySQL stack, which allows us to also implement webapps with it and to
    open up new business lines, to synchronise news better or to monetarise
    press products more easily. The other use cases, wp_remote_get
    wp_remote_post , curl, telegram , twitter and interconnected things are also mind blowing, once you can see what it is capable of.
